JAN MOLBY has resigned as boss of the Football League's bottom club, Kidderminster.

The former Liverpool midfielder was in his second spell at Aggborough, having been in charge from May 1999 to March 2002 and led Harriers from the Conference into the League in his first season.

He returned for a second spell in October of last year following the departure of Ian Britton but, with money tight at the Worcester-shire club and the squad hit hard by injuries, they have slumped to the bottom of League Two.

Kidderminster chairman Colin Youngjohns said: "Both Jan and ourselves are united in our disappointment at the league position the club currently finds itself in.

"Results haven't gone the way we would have hoped and Jan's task has been made all the more difficult by the horrendous injury problems we have suffered.

"The club needs a spark to re-ignite our season and Jan felt it would be best if someone else tried to do that."

And he added: "It was a difficult decision for him but we respect and understand his rationale."

Youth team manager Shaun Cunnington had been appointed caretaker manager for the foreseeable future, assisted by Gary Barnett.
